Abstract
Genome editing approaches, particularly the CRISPR/Cas9 technology, are becoming state-of-the-art for trait development in numerous breeding programs. Significant advances in improving plant traits are enabled by this influential tool, especially for disease resistance, compared to traditional breeding. One of the potyviruses, the turnip mosaic virus (TuMV), is the most widespread and damaging virus that infects Brassica spp. worldwide. We generated the targeted mutation at the eIF(iso)4E gene in the TuMV-susceptible cultivar "Seoul" using CRISPR/Cas9 to develop TuMV-resistant Chinese cabbage. We detected several heritable indel mutations in the edited T0 plants and developed T1 through generational progression. It was indicated in the sequence analysis of the eIF(iso)4E-edited T1 plants that the mutations were transferred to succeeding generations. These edited T1 plants conferred resistance to TuMV. It was shown with ELISA analysis the lack of accumulation of viral particles. Furthermore, we found a strong negative correlation (r = -0.938) between TuMV resistance and the genome editing frequency of eIF(iso)4E. Consequently, it was revealed in this study that CRISPR/Cas9 technique can expedite the breeding process to improve traits in Chinese cabbage plants.

Zlobin N, Taranov V. Plant eIF4E isoforms as factors of susceptibility and resistance to potyviruses. FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1041868.

Abstract
Potyviruses are the largest group of plant-infecting RNA viruses that affect a wide range of crop plants. Plant resistance genes against potyviruses are often recessive and encode translation initiation factors eIF4E. The inability of potyviruses to use plant eIF4E factors leads to the development of resistance through a loss-of-susceptibility mechanism. Plants have a small family of eIF4E genes that encode several isoforms with distinct but overlapping functions in cell metabolism. Potyviruses use distinct eIF4E isoforms as susceptibility factors in different plants. The role of different members of the plant eIF4E family in the interaction with a given potyvirus could differ drastically. An interplay exists between different members of the eIF4E family in the context of plant-potyvirus interactions, allowing different eIF4E isoforms to modulate each other's availability as susceptibility factors for the virus. In this review, possible molecular mechanisms underlying this interaction are discussed, and approaches to identify the eIF4E isoform that plays a major role in the plant-potyvirus interaction are suggested. The final section of the review discusses how knowledge about the interaction between different eIF4E isoforms can be used to develop plants with durable resistance to potyviruses.

Abstract
Vegetable crops provide a rich source of essential nutrients for humanity and represent critical economic values to global rural societies. However, genetic studies of vegetable crops have lagged behind major food crops, such as rice, wheat and maize, thereby limiting the application of molecular breeding. In the past decades, genome sequencing technologies have been increasingly applied in genetic studies and breeding of vegetables. In this review, we recapitulate recent progress on reference genome construction, population genomics and the exploitation of multi-omics datasets in vegetable crops. These advances have enabled an in-depth understanding of their domestication and evolution, and facilitated the genetic dissection of numerous agronomic traits, which jointly expedites the exploitation of state-of-the-art biotechnologies in vegetable breeding. We further provide perspectives of further directions for vegetable genomics and indicate how the ever-increasing omics data could accelerate genetic, biological studies and breeding in vegetable crops.

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of eIF Family Genes from Brassica rapa in Response to TuMV Resistance. PLANTS 2022; 11:plants11172248.

Abstract
Brassica rapa is one of the most important leafy vegetables worldwide, and has a long history of cultivation. However, it has not been possible to completely control the damage of turnip mosaic virus (TuMV), a serious virus in B. rapa, to production. In this study, the genome-wide identification and expression detection of eIF family genes from B. rapa in response to TuMV resistance were analyzed, including the identification of eIF family genes, chromosomal distribution, three-dimensional (3D) structure and sequence logo analyses, and the expression characterization as well as differential metabolite analysis of eIF family genes in resistant/susceptible lines, which may further prove the whole-genome tripling (WGT) event in B. rapa evolution and provide evidence for the functional redundancy and functional loss of multicopy eIF genes in evolution. A qRT-PCR analysis revealed that the relative expressions of eIF genes in a susceptible line (80461) were higher than those in a resistant line (80124), which may prove that, when TuMV infects host plants, the eIF genes can combine with the virus mRNA 5′ end cap structure and promote the initiation of virus mRNA translation in the susceptible B. rapa line. In addition, the metabolite substances were detected, the differences in metabolites between disease-resistant and disease-susceptible plants were mainly manifested by altered compounds such as flavonoids, jasmonic acid, salicylic acid, ketones, esters, etc., which inferred that the different metabolite regulations of eIF family genes and reveal the resistance mechanisms of eIF genes against TuMV in brassica crops. This study may lay a new theoretical foundation for revealing eIF family gene resistance to TuMV in B. rapa, as well as advancing our understanding of virus–host interactions.

Abstract
By constructing an F2 population, a new potential dominant resistance gene to TuMV in Brassica rapa was mapped and identified. Brassica rapa is the most widely grown vegetable crop in China, and turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) is a great threat to its production. Hence, it is a very important work to excavate more and novel resistance genes in B. rapa. In this study, the resistant line B80124 and the susceptible line B80450 were used to construct the F2 populations, and through genetic analysis, the resistance to TuMV was found to be controlled by a dominant gene. Bulked segregant analysis sequence (BSA-seq) was used for the primary mapping, and an intersection (22.25-25.03 Mb) was obtained. After fine mapping using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) markers, the candidate region was narrowed to 330 kb between the SNP markers A06S11 and A06S14, including eight genes relating to disease resistance. Using the transcriptome analysis and sequence identification, BraA06g035130.3C was screened as the final candidate gene, and it contained two deletion mutations, leading to frameshift in the susceptible line B80450. In addition, the phylogenetic analysis, hydrophilia and hydrophobicity analysis, subcellular location prediction analysis, amino acid bias analysis, and 3D modeling structures of BraA06g035130.3C were conducted to predict its functions. This study was conducive to the identification of a new TuMV resistance gene in B. rapa, which is of important scientific significance and application value for the improvement of TuMV resistance traits and molecular design breeding for Brassica crops.

BcTFIIIA Negatively Regulates Turnip Mosaic Virus Infection through Interaction with Viral CP and VPg Proteins in Pak Choi (Brassica campestris ssp. chinensis). Genes (Basel) 2022; 13:genes13071209. [PMID: 35885992 PMCID: PMC9317785 DOI: 10.3390/genes13071209] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2022] [Revised: 07/01/2022] [Accepted: 07/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
TFIIIA is a zinc-finger transcription factor that is involved in post-transcriptional regulation during development. Here, the BcTFIIIA gene was isolated from pak choi. Sequence analysis showed that BcTFIIIA encodes 383 amino acids (aa) with an open reading frame (ORF) of 1152 base pairs (bp). We investigated the subcellular location of BcTFIIIA and found the localized protein in the nucleus. BcTFIIIA was suppressed when the pak choi was infected by the turnip mosaic virus (TuMV). The BcTFIIIA mRNA expression level in a resistant variety was higher than that in a sensitive variety, as determined by qRT-PCR analysis. Yeast two hybrid (Y2H) assay and bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) suggested that BcTFIIIA interacts with TuMV CP and VPg in vivo, respectively, and in vitro. A virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) experiment showed that the silencing of BcTFIIIA gene expression in pak choi promoted the accumulation of TuMV. These results suggest that BcTFIIIA negatively regulates viral infection through the interaction with TuMV CP and VPg.

Resistance Management through Brassica Crop–TuMV–Aphid Interactions: Retrospect and Prospects. HORTICULTURAE 2022.

Abstract
Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) is an important threat to the yield and quality of brassica crops in China, and has brought serious losses to brassica crops in the Far East, including China and the north. Aphids (Hemiptera, Aphidoidea) are the main mediators of TuMV transmission in field production, and not only have strong virus transmission ability (small individuals, strong concealment, and strong fecundity), but are also influenced by the environment, making them difficult to control. Till now, there have been few studies on the resistance to aphids in brassica crops, which depended mainly on pesticide control in agriculture production. However, the control effect was temporarily effective, which also brought environmental pollution, pesticide residues in food products, and destroyed the ecological balance. This study reviews the relationship among brassica crop–TuMV, TuMV–aphid, and brassica crop–aphid interactions, and reveals the influence factors (light, temperature, and CO2 concentration) on brassica crop–TuMV–aphid interactions, summarizing the current research status and main scientific problems about brassica crop–TuMV–aphid interactions. It may provide theoretical guidance for opening up new ways of aphid and TuMV management in brassica crops.

Abstract
Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) induces disease in susceptible hosts, notably impacting cultivation of important crop species of the Brassica genus. Few effective plant viral disease management strategies exist with the majority of current approaches aiming to mitigate the virus indirectly through control of aphid vector species. Multiple sources of genetic resistance to TuMV have been identified previously, although the majority are strain-specific and have not been exploited commercially. Here, two Brassica juncea lines (TWBJ14 and TWBJ20) with resistance against important TuMV isolates (UK 1, vVIR24, CDN 1, and GBR 6) representing the most prevalent pathotypes of TuMV (1, 3, 4, and 4, respectively) and known to overcome other sources of resistance, have been identified and characterized. Genetic inheritance of both resistances was determined to be based on a recessive two-gene model. Using both single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array and genotyping by sequencing (GBS) methods, quantitative trait loci (QTL) analyses were performed using first backcross (BC1) genetic mapping populations segregating for TuMV resistance. Pairs of statistically significant TuMV resistance-associated QTLs with additive interactive effects were identified on chromosomes A03 and A06 for both TWBJ14 and TWBJ20 material. Complementation testing between these B. juncea lines indicated that one resistance-linked locus was shared. Following established resistance gene nomenclature for recessive TuMV resistance genes, these new resistance-associated loci have been termed retr04 (chromosome A06, TWBJ14, and TWBJ20), retr05 (A03, TWBJ14), and retr06 (A03, TWBJ20). Genotyping by sequencing data investigated in parallel to robust SNP array data was highly suboptimal, with informative data not established for key BC1 parental samples. This necessitated careful consideration and the development of new methods for processing compromised data. Using reductive screening of potential markers according to allelic variation and the recombination observed across BC1 samples genotyped, compromised GBS data was rendered functional with near-equivalent QTL outputs to the SNP array data. The reductive screening strategy employed here offers an alternative to methods relying upon imputation or artificial correction of genotypic data and may prove effective for similar biparental QTL mapping studies.

Abstract
Plants protect against viruses through passive and active resistance mechanisms, and in most cases characterized thus far, natural recessive resistance to potyviruses has been mapped to mutations in the eukaryotic initiation factor eIF4E or eIF(iso)4E genes. Five eIF4E copies and three eIF(iso)4E copies were detected in Brassica rapa. The eIF4E and eIF(iso)4E genes could interact with turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) viral protein linked to the genome (VPg) to initiate virus translation. From the yeast two-hybrid system (Y2H) and bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) assays, the TuMV-CHN2/CHN3 VPgs could not interact with BraA.eIF4E.a/c or BraA.eIF(iso)4E.c, but they could interact with BraA.eIF(iso)4E.a in B. rapa. Further analysis indicated that the amino acid substitution L186F (nt T556C) in TuMV-UK1 VPg was important for the interaction networks between the TuMV VPg and eIF(iso)4E proteins. An interaction model of the BraA. eIF(iso)4E protein with TuMV VPg was constructed to infer the effect of the significant amino acids on the interaction of TuMV VPgs-eIF(iso)4Es, particularly whether the L186F in TuMV-UK1 VPg could change the structure of the TuMV-UK1 VPg protein, which may terminate the interaction of the BraA.eIF(iso)4E and TuMV VPg protein. This study provides new insights into the interactions between plant viruses and translation initiation factors to reveal the working of key amino acids.

Abstract
Resistance to diseases caused by turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) in crop species of the family Brassicaceae has been studied extensively, especially in members of the genus Brassica. The variation in response observed on resistant and susceptible plants inoculated with different isolates of TuMV is due to a combination of the variation in the plant resistome and the variation in the virus genome. Here, we review the breadth of this variation, both at the level of variation in TuMV sequences, with one eye towards the phylogeny and evolution of the virus, and another eye towards the nature of the various responses observed in susceptible vs. different types of resistance responses. The analyses of the viral genomes allowed comparisons of pathotyped viruses on particular indicator hosts to produce clusters of host types, while the inclusion of phylogeny data and geographic location allowed the formation of the host/geographic cluster groups, the derivation of both of which are presented here. Various studies on resistance determination in particular brassica crops sometimes led to further genetic studies, in many cases to include the mapping of genes, and in some cases to the actual identification of the genes. In addition to summarizing the results from such studies done in brassica crops, as well as in radish and Arabidopsis (the latter as a potential source of candidate genes for brassica and radish), we also summarize work done using nonconventional approaches to obtaining resistance to TuMV.

Abstract
The arms race between plants and viruses never ceases. Chinese cabbage, an important type of Brassica vegetable crop, is vulnerable to plant virus infection, especially to Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV). To better examine the molecular mechanisms behind the virus infection, we conducted the correlation analysis of RNA-Seq and quantitative iTRAQ-LC-MS/MS in TuMV-infected and in healthy Chinese cabbage leaves. There were 757 differentially expressed genes and 75 differentially expressed proteins that were screened in Chinese cabbage plants infected with TuMV. These genes were enriched in many pathways, and among them, the plant hormone signal transduction, plant-pathogen interaction, and protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum pathways were suggested to be closely related pathways. The correlation analysis between RNA-Seq and quantitative iTRAQ-LC-MS/MS was then further explored. Finally, we obtained a preliminary network of several candidate genes associated with TuMV infection, and we found that they mainly belonged to calcium signaling pathways, heat shock proteins, WRKY transcription factors, and non-specific lipid transfer proteins. These results may lead to a better understanding of antiviral mechanisms and of disease-resistant breeding.

[PMID: 32194970 PMCID: PMC7072071 DOI: 10.1038/s41438-020-0257-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2019] [Revised: 01/12/2020] [Accepted: 01/15/2020] [Indexed: 05/18/2023]
Abstract
Brassica species include many economically important crops that provide nutrition and health-promoting substances to humans worldwide. However, as with all crops, their production is constantly threatened by emerging viral, bacterial, and fungal diseases, whose incidence has increased in recent years. Traditional methods of control are often costly, present limited effectiveness, and cause environmental damage; instead, the ideal approach is to mine and utilize the resistance genes of the Brassica crop hosts themselves. Fortunately, the development of genomics, molecular genetics, and biological techniques enables us to rapidly discover and apply resistance (R) genes. Herein, the R genes identified in Brassica crops are summarized, including their mapping and cloning, possible molecular mechanisms, and application in resistance breeding. Future perspectives concerning how to accurately discover additional R gene resources and efficiently utilize these genes in the genomic era are also discussed.

Abstract
Eukaryotic translation initiation factors (eIFs) are essential protein complexes involved in the translation of mRNA into proteins. These initiation factors are generally used as targets in the control of plant RNA virus infections. In the present study, we identified a total 190 eIFs, clustered phylogenetically into 40 distinct subfamilies in the allopolyploid Brassica juncea. Extensive evolutionary duplications of the eIFs in B. juncea suggest their increased genetic diversity and wide adaptability. The induction of expressions in some of the eIFs after inoculation against Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) provided candidate targets to be used in the control of viral infections. In addition, the expression profiles of eIFs under different temperatures suggested that the TuMV epidemic was temperature dependent. The eIFs expressions suggested that the systemic viral infections were more acute in plants grown between 20 °C and 28 °C. In addition, our results revealed that new subgroups of eIFs, eIF2β, eIF2α, eIF2Bβ, EF1A, and PABP could be represented as targets for antiviral strategies in B. juncea. In summary, our findings would be helpful in studying the complex mechanisms of eIF-mediated, temperature-dependent RNA virus control in B. juncea.

Abstract
Computer vision systems have numerous tools to assist in various medical fields, notably in image diagnosis. Computed tomography (CT) is the principal imaging method used to assist in the diagnosis of diseases such as bone fractures, lung cancer, heart disease, and emphysema, among others. Lung cancer is one of the four main causes of death in the world. The lung regions in the CT images are marked manually by a specialist as this initial step is a significant challenge for computer vision techniques. Once defined, the lung regions are segmented for clinical diagnoses. This work proposes an automatic segmentation of the lungs in CT images, using the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) Mask R-CNN, to specialize the model for lung region mapping, combined with supervised and unsupervised machine learning methods (Bayes, Support Vectors Machine (SVM), K-means and Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs)). Our approach using Mask R-CNN with the K-means kernel produced the best results for lung segmentation reaching an accuracy of 97.68 ± 3.42% and an average runtime of 11.2 s. We compared our results against other works for validation purposes, and our approach had the highest accuracy and was faster than some state-of-the-art methods.

Variability in eukaryotic initiation factor iso4E in Brassica rapa influences interactions with the viral protein linked to the genome of Turnip mosaic virus. Sci Rep 2018; 8:13588.

Abstract
Plant potyviruses require eukaryotic translation initiation factors (eIFs) such as eIF4E and eIF(iso)4E to replicate and spread. When Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) infects a host plant, its viral protein linked to the genome (VPg) needs to interact with eIF4E or eIF(iso)4E to initiate translation. TuMV utilizes BraA.eIF4E.a, BraA.eIF4E.c, BraA.eIF(iso)4E.a, and BraA.eIF(iso)4E.c of Brassica rapa to initiate translation in Arabidopsis thaliana. In this study, the BraA.eIF4E.a, BraA.eIF4E.c, BraA.eIF(iso)4E.a, and BraA.eIF(iso)4E.c genes were cloned and sequenced from eight B. rapa lines, namely, two BraA.eIF4E.a alleles, four BraA.eIF4E.c alleles, four BraA.eIF(iso)4E.a alleles, and two BraA.eIF(iso)4E.c alleles. Yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) and bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) analyses indicated that TuMV VPg could not interact with eIF4E, but only with eIF(iso)4E of B. rapa. In addition, the VPgs of the different TuMV isolates interacted with various eIF(iso)4E copies in B. rapa. In particular, TuMV-UK1/CDN1 VPg only interacted with BraA.eIF(iso)4E.c, not with BraA.eIF(iso)4E.a. Some single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified that may have affected the interaction between eIF(iso)4E and VPg such as the SNP T106C in BraA.eIF(iso)4E.c and the SNP A154C in VPg. Furthermore, a three-dimensional structural model of the BraA.eIF(iso)4E.c-1 protein was constructed to identify the specific conformation of the variable amino acids from BraA.eIF(iso)4E.c. The 36th amino acid in BraA.eIF(iso)4E.c is highly conserved and may play an important role in establishing protein structural stability. The findings of the present study may lay the foundation for future investigations on the co-evolution of TuMV and eIF(iso)4E.

Abstract
Recessive resistances to plant viruses in the Potyvirus genus have been found to be based on mutations in the plant eukaryotic translation initiation factors, eIF4E and eIF4G or their isoforms. Here we report that natural, monogenic recessive resistance to the Potyvirus Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) has been found in a number of mustard (Brassica juncea) accessions. Bulked segregant analysis and sequencing of resistant and susceptible plant lines indicated the resistance is controlled by a single recessive gene, recessive TuMV resistance 03 (retr03), an allele of the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2B-beta (eIF2Bβ). Silencing of eIF2Bβ in a TuMV-susceptible mustard plant line and expression of eIF2Bβ from a TuMV-susceptible line in a TuMV-resistant mustard plant line confirmed the new resistance mechanism. A functional copy of a specific allele of eIF2Bβ is required for efficient TuMV infection. eIF2Bβ represents a new class of virus resistance gene conferring resistance to any pathogen. eIF2B acts as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for its GTP-binding protein partner eIF2 via interaction with eIF2·GTP at an early step in translation initiation. Further genotyping indicated that a single non-synonymous substitution (A120G) in the N-terminal region of eIF2Bβ was responsible for the TuMV resistance. A reproducible marker has been developed, facilitating marker-assisted selection for TuMV resistance in B. juncea. Our findings provide a new target for seeking natural resistance to potyviruses and new opportunities for the control of potyviruses using genome editing techniques targeted on eIF2Bβ.

Abstract
The Potyviridae family relies on a cap-independent translation mechanism to facilitate protein expression. The genomic architecture of the viral RNAs of the Potyviridae family resembles those of the animal picornaviruses. The viral genomes lack a 5' cap structure. Instead, they have the viral protein VPg covalently linked to the 5' end of the RNA. The viral RNAs code for a single large polyprotein, which is then cleaved into several functional subunits. With their common genome organization with the Picornaviridae, it has been largely assumed that the members of the plant Potyviridae family share similar translation mechanism. We will describe the remarkably diverse translational enhancers identified within the family and their unique mechanisms of translation, from internal recruitment of the ribosomes to ribosomal scanning from the 5' end and the recruitment of the VPg in translation. The divergence among the potyviral translation enhancers is heightened with the recent discovery of Triticum mosaic virus, an atypical member of the Potyviridae family, for which its 5' leader by far exceeds the typical length of plant viral leaders and contains features typically found in animal viruses. Much remains to be learned on how these highly divergent elements enable potyviruses, which include some of the most damaging plant viruses, to take over the host translation apparatus. While no clear consensus sequence, structure or mechanism has been reported yet among the potyviral elements, more thorough studies are needed to fill in the gap of knowledge.

Abstract
The protein-protein interaction between VPg (viral protein genome-linked) of potyviruses and eIF4E (eukaryotic initiation factor 4E) or eIF(iso)4E of their host plants is a critical step in determining viral virulence. In this study, we evaluated the approach of engineering broad-spectrum resistance in Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa) to Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV), which is one of the most important potyviruses, by a systematic knowledge-based approach to interrupt the interaction between TuMV VPg and B. rapa eIF(iso)4E. The seven amino acids in the cap-binding pocket of eIF(iso)4E were selected on the basis of other previous results and comparison of protein models of cap-binding pockets, and mutated. Yeast two-hybrid assay and co-immunoprecipitation analysis demonstrated that W95L, K150L and W95L/K150E amino acid mutations of B. rapa eIF(iso)4E interrupted its interaction with TuMV VPg. All eIF(iso)4E mutants were able to complement an eIF4E-knockout yeast strain, indicating that the mutated eIF(iso)4E proteins retained their function as a translational initiation factor. To determine whether these mutations could confer resistance, eIF(iso)4E W95L, W95L/K150E and eIF(iso)4E wild-type were over-expressed in a susceptible Chinese cabbage cultivar. Evaluation of the TuMV resistance of T1 and T2 transformants demonstrated that the over-expression of the eIF(iso)4E mutant forms can confer resistance to multiple TuMV strains. These data demonstrate the utility of knowledge-based approaches for the engineering of broad-spectrum resistance in Chinese cabbage.

Abstract
A novel dominant resistance gene, TuRB07, was found to confer resistance to an isolate of TuMV strain C4 in B. rapa line VC1 and mapped on the top of chromosome A06. The inheritance of resistance to Turnip mosaic virus in Brassica rapa was investigated by crossing the resistant line, VC1 with the susceptible line, SR5, and genotyping and phenotyping diverse progenies derived from this cross. Both a doubled haploid population, VCS3M-DH, an F2 and two BC1 (F1 × VC1 and F1 × SR5) populations were created. Population tests revealed that the resistance to the TuMV C4 isolate in B. rapa is controlled by a single dominant gene. This resistance gene, TuRB07 was positioned on the top of linkage group A06 of the B. rapa genome through bulk segregation analysis and fine mapping recombinants in three doubled haploid- and one backcross population using microsatellite markers developed from BAC end sequences. Within the region between the two closely linked markers flanking TuRB07, H132A24-s1, and KS10960, in the Chiifu reference genome, two genes encoding nucleotide-binding site and leucine-rich repeat proteins with a coiled-coil motif (CC-NBS-LRR), Bra018862 and Bra018863 were identified as candidate resistance genes. The gene Bra018862 is truncated, but the gene Bra018863 has all the domains to function. Furthermore, the analysis of structural variation using resequencing data of VC1 and SR5 revealed that Bra018863 might be a functional gene because the gene has no structural variation in the resistant line VC1 when compared with Chiifu, whereas at the other NBS-LRR genes large deletions were identified in the resistant line. Allelic differences of Bra018863 were found between VC1 and SR5, supporting the notion that this gene is a putative candidate gene for the virus resistance.

Abstract
Recessive strain-specific resistance to a number of plant viruses in the Potyvirus genus has been found to be based on mutations in the eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) and its isoform, eIF(iso)4E. We identified three copies of eIF(iso)4E in a number of Brassica rapa lines. Here we report broad-spectrum resistance to the potyvirus Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) due to a natural mechanism based on the mis-splicing of the eIF(iso)4E allele in some TuMV-resistant B. rapa var. pekinensis lines. Of the splice variants, the most common results in a stop codon in intron 1 and a much truncated, non-functional protein. The existence of multiple copies has enabled redundancy in the host plant's translational machinery, resulting in diversification and emergence of the resistance. Deployment of the resistance is complicated by the presence of multiple copies of the gene. Our data suggest that in the B. rapa subspecies trilocularis, TuMV appears to be able to use copies of eIF(iso)4E at two loci. Transformation of different copies of eIF(iso)4E from a resistant B. rapa line into an eIF(iso)4E knockout line of Arabidopsis thaliana proved misleading because it showed that, when expressed ectopically, TuMV could use multiple copies which was not the case in the resistant B. rapa line. The inability of TuMV to access multiple copies of eIF(iso)4E in B. rapa and the broad spectrum of the resistance suggest it may be durable.
